SULCA 4.2

The SULCA 4.2 software allows the user to perform LCAs including life-cycle inventory (LCI) and impact assessment (LCIA) calculations, as well as to present the calculation results in a comprehensible manner through its unique reports and charts. With this software, calculation of footprints e.g. carbon footprint is transparent and easy.

SULCA 4.2 is fast and easy to use, offering the following:

Simantics System Dynamics

System dynamics is a methodology for understanding the behaviour of complex dynamic systems belonging to different domains. Simantics System Dynamics is a free, open source system dynamics modelling and simulation software. The software has an intuitive and easy to use Eclipse based graphical user interface which allows you to configure the whole model structure graphically. In addition to supporting all the common system dynamics modelling operations, the software includes many advanced features, such as structural reusable components, multidimensional variables, and sensitivity analysis.

ChemSheet - Materials and Process Chemistry

Future models in process chemistry will increasingly be based on a multi-component, multi-phase Gibbs energy approach. ChemSheet is the foremost pioneer in Gibbs’ian process modelling. Taking advantage of unique immaterial constraints, ChemSheet handles reaction rate controlled chemical systems, multi-phase membrane systems, complex materials with surface phases, and much more.

SULCA - Sustainability tool for Ecodesign, Footprints & LCA

SULCA software allows the user to perform Ecodesign and various kinds of Life Cycle Assessments (LCA). With SULCA, the environmental, carbon and water footprints can be calculated in a transparent and user-friendly way. Tool supports the evaluation of sustainability and environmental performance of a product,process, technology or any other system.

Verification of automation software by model checking

Model checking is an efficient formal method for the verification of hardware and software designs. Based on model checking, VTT offers a service for verifying that automation system software design fulfils stated requirements. The difference to more common verification methods (like testing or simulation) is that all the possible executions of the system model are taken into account. Exhaustive analysis means that hidden design errors can be found in systems that have already undergone verification through conventional means.

CFD modelling of combustion and industrial multiphase flows

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a powerful and affordable tool to enable deep understanding of and to design various industrial flow processes such as combustion in boiler furnaces, chemical reactors and other mixing processes. VTT offers a wide range of expertise in CFD modelling and simulation of combustion and other industrial processes and equipment. The development and computationally efficient implementation of models describing the relevant physical and chemical phenomena is an essential part of our research work.

CoReCo – automatic reconstruction of whole genome metabolic models

Metabolic modeling can be an important tool in the development of microbial strains capable of high efficiency production of chemicals or proteins. At VTT we are able to reconstruct gapless metabolic networks for several related species at once using the CoReCo algorithm. To ensure the high quality of the models we created an unique database containing only atom and electron balanced reactions.

BALAS - Conceptual Process Design

Process design and analysis is always based on the management of mass and energy balances. BALAS simulation tool is the most effective way to obtain information on the behaviour of an existing process and get a deeper understanding of the interactions in your process. Built-in link to MS Excel enables easy transfer and customised visualisation of simulation data.

SULCA - Training for end users

Training on the use of the SULCA software is available from the supplier. Training of SULCA software can be one day or more, and can be ordered along the purchase of the licences of SULCA or separately. The training is provided by VTT LCA expert and it can take place either at Customer’s place or at VTT . The content (e.g. SULCA basics, example cases and/or customer’s cases), place and time should be agreed together in more detail.
